It was indeed an honour and privilege to provide support to all who attended and I want to thank you for your patience and understanding in the months leading up to the Games. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet so many like-minded, active and caring folks from across the province and I look forward to seeing you all again soon.

The next Canada Games will be held in Saint John, New Brunswick August 22 – 26, 2018, where I am confident Maritime pride and especially Nova Scotia spirit will again be prominent and attendance high. Will you be there? I sure hope so.

The Nova Scotia 55+ Provincial Games are only a year away and being conducted on the beautiful South Shore of our wonderful province, hosted by Lunenburg County September 13 – 16, 2017. Stay tuned for updates and pertinent information as it becomes available.

Lastly, I would just like to say ‘Stay active, stay fit, enjoy every day and spread the word about the ‘Games ’and always remember “Fun, Fitness and Friendship”
